This Psalm contains one of the verses considered by some to be a key verse in the entire book. Psalm 19:14 reads: Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my rock and my Redeemer.

For this reason, though the words of the psalm do not directly plead for a pure heart, it is the condition of the heart that is at the core of the petition.

There are other items of interest with regard to this psalm. The Believer’s Study Bible notes: “Psalm 19 illustrates the two general categories of revelation: [1] natural revelation, God’s revealing of Himself through the created order (vv. 1– 6); and [2] special revelation, God’s revealing of Himself through the Scriptures (vv. 7–11).”

It is important to note that the Psalmist ascribes certain things to God, evidenced in His works and in His Law. It is in light of God that the Psalmist makes one simple request concerning the condition and actions of his heart.

Questions to Ponder1. How important is it that our prayers be uttered in light of God’s revelation?2. In what ways can we, in prayer, acknowledge the works and words of God?3. What does “nature” reveal about God?4. Can we pray for God to act on our behalf if we ignore or refuse to obey his word?
